How are you using Repentia?
« on: March 13, 2013, 08:34:02 AM »
Finally decided to pick up a unit so I'd have every option in the SOB DEX.  Do you hold them back as a counter assault unit or march them forward letting the survivors do their job?

I usually take a Retributor squad and take a rhino for them. Then deploy the squad beside the rhino and put the repentia behind it then in the movement phase embark. Then if everthing goes okay, I usually get them across the board enough to disembark and charge. It works a good chunk of the time. However,if playing against a drop pod army, if you don't get 1st turn, make sure you make it hard for them to land to close. This is how I us them most of the time but still depends on senerio.

Makes sense.  At least in the .pdf Dex you can put them in a transport.  I do field HB Retributors but normally give them a TLMM Immolator.  I'll have to try the Rhino deal.  Was thinking I'd take the HF/F off a BSS give them a MM/M and use their Rhino as the transport.
